*5: This indicates items for which ª2 trip detection logicº is used. With this logic, when a logic malfunction is first detected, the
malfunction is temporarily stored in the ECM memory. If the same case is detected again during the second drive test, this
second detection causes the Malfunction Indicator Lamp to light up.
The 2 trip repeats the same mode a 2nd time. (However, the IG switch must be turned OFF between the 1st trip and 2nd
trip),
In the Test Mode, the Malfunction Indicator Lamp lights up the 1st trip a malfunction is detected.wopen in EGR gas temp. sensor circuit

Back±Up Function
If there is trouble with the program in the ECM and the ignition signals (IGT) are not output from
microcomputer the ECM controls fuel injection and ignition timing at predetermined levels as a back±up
function to make it possible to continue to operate the vehicle.
Furthermore, the injection duration is calculated from the starting signal (STA) and the throttle position
signal (IDL). Also, the ignition timing is fixed at the initial ignition timing, 5
BTDC, without relation to
the engine speed.
HINT: If the engine is controlled by the back±up function, the malfunction indicator lamp lights up to
warn the driver of the malfunction but the diagnostic trouble code is not output.

SET TEST MODE
1. With the ignition switch off, using SST, connect the ter±
minals TE2 and E1 of the data link connector 1 and 2.
SST 09843±18020
2. Start the engine and check to see the malfunction indica±
tor lamp to go off.
PERFORM A SIMULATION TEST
Using the symptom simulation (See page IN ±24), apply vibra±
tion to and pull lightly on the wire harness, connector or
terminals in the circuit indicated by the malfunction code.
In this test, if the malfunction indicator lamp light up, it indi±
cates that the place where the wire harness, connector or
terminals being pulled or vibrated has faulty contact. Check
that point for loose connections, dirt on the terminals, poor fit
or other problems and repair as necessary.
HINT: After cancelling out the diagnostic trouble code in
memory and set the test mode, if the malfunction indicator
lamp does not go off after the engine is started, check thor±
oughly for faulty contact, etc., then try the check again. If the
malfunction indicator lamp still does not go off, check and
replace ECM.
CHECK FOR MOMENTARY
INTERRUPTION
As described in the preceding paragraph, abnormality detec±
tion ability in the test mode is increased compared to that in
the normal mode, so that when momentary interruptions or
momentary shorts occur in the ECM signal circuits (G, NE,
THW, THA, PIM, VTA) shown in the table below, the appro±
priate diagnostic trouble code is output.
Accordingly, when the diagnostic trouble codes shown in the
table below (13, 22, 24, 31, 41) are output during the diag±
nostic trouble code check, and inspection of the appropriate
circuits reveals no abnormality, perform the check for momen±
tary interruption as described below.
By performing the check for momentary interruption, the
place where momentary interruptions or momentary shorts are
occurring due to poor contacts can be isolated.

BASIC INSPECTION
When the normal code is displayed in the diagnostic trouble code check, troubleshooting should be
performed in the order for all possible circuits to be considered as the causes of the problems.
In many cases, by carrying out the basic engine check shown in the following flow chart, the location
causing the problem can be found quickly and efficiently. Therefore, use of this check is essential in en-
gine troubleshooting.
Remove air filter.
Visually check that the air filter is not excessively
damaged or oily.
If necessary, clean the air filter with compressed
air. First blow from inside thoroughly, then blow
off outside of the air filter.
Is battery positive voltage 11 V or more when engine is stopped?
Proceed to matrix chart of problem
symptoms on page EG1±327.
